What a vile skank.

Did she mention he gave them their freedom and they never left the plantation.

Slavery in Africa:

[Bon of Babble]

Yes, and ≈ 600,000, mostly young, mostly White boys gave up their lives to put an end to slavery.

But that doesn’t matter to hateful racists like Nina Turner.

Their lives didn’t and don’t matter.

[EvilCapitalist]

If she vilified George Washington in my house I would bodily throw her out.

Nina Turner

[x]

She’s had a tough life.

It was no picnic being married to Ike Turner.

My Give a Damn wore out a long time ago.

You riot, you lose any credibility. I really don’t care. Never cared that much, but now really don’t.

All these black bastards want is to be LIKE their ancestors. They ENVY the martyrdom that pre-1965 blacks possessed, so they want to pretend they too are oppressed. Hoping to keep milking that pity that guilt-ridden white commies will lavish on them.

[Old Yeller]

I thought she died recently.

Human beings ?

[Political Junkie Too]

And what would have happened to the black slaves had George Washington not defeated the British?

They would probably have been hauled away by the British navy to fight in the various British colonial expansion wars in France, India, and the Far East.

Never heard of her. But, it being black history month, it seems a lot of beings just pop up on the horizon.

Turner, a one-time Ohio state senator and current Senior fellow at Institute on Race, Power and Political Economy, wrote: “Reminder: George Washington owned human beings.”

Who funds these organizations?!

[Rlsau1]

I am always cautious about believing what people like this utter. Do they really believe what they say (most appear ignorant of the true history of this country), or have they secured a comfy gig for themselves which requires them to spout baseless tripe? I think most of them fall into the latter category.

[Brooklyn Attitude]

Schools and universities teach slavery as if was only in America. No mention that it was worldwide, existed for thousands of years, and America was one of the first countries to end it.

Reminder: George Washington owned human beings.

---

Yes he did. And while it’s fashionable now to judge 18th century behavior by 21st century standards, that doesn’t make it right or even fair to those being judged. Who knows now what will be condemned in 2300s?

[ronnie raygun]

George Washington owned human beings. So did the views Sonny Hostins ancestors but this is ok because it was blacks selling blacks
